摘要:
AbstractIt may be required to determine the astronomical position of a place for surveyor other purposes. The commonly accepted methods for latitude make use of meridian or near meridian stars; ex-meridian methods are used for longitude and for azimuth. Since the formula for calculating azimuth is a function of latitude, it can be used to determine the latitude if the true azimuth is already known, and this could be described as an ex-meridian method for latitude.
